Also, on the kurz poly issue:

with a k2000/k2vx, you are given 24 voices of poly. If you want a stereo piano, you`ll have a grand total of 12 voices.

I have heard that those algos that provide lots of extra osc. have little room for the fancy dsp, too. So you have a choice between 48 voices of sample playback with fancy dsp, or 48 voices of sample-playback + digital sub-osc. without very much extra power?

Not to dizz kurzweil, I think you have great synths, and it is brave that you consentrate on new functionality instead of the useless "bigger is better" battle between japanese manufacturers (128 voices of sloppy polyphony etc). But polyphony is perhaps the biggest limiting factor of Kurzweil workstations today? Given that they are quite expensive (compared to Korg triton, Roland xv 5080, Yamaha ex-5). That and the factory samples. I cant believe that you cant include more than 8mb of old 1990s k2000 samples (+ the excelent piano board). Those customers who does not purchase extra rom boards or sampler ram, will have very weak representation of several often-emulated instruments. (triton: 32mb, xv5080: 64mb? ex5 16 mb, k2600: 12mb...)
